carlostex 38 Posted February 15, 2011 Yes, i can confirm that. Empty vehicles and obstacles which are placed are not seen by AI drivers. I placed a wreck on the street and the UAZ was repeating to crash into it instead searching a way around it. Let me correct that. If you put empty vehicles like a tank for instance AI will go around it. The same for empty choppers or empty cars for instance. AI ignores objects like concrete walls, barriers, wrecks, fences... ---------- Post added at 03:30 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:25 PM ---------- here it goes http://www.mediafire.com/?hweyqjho3ob06y3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dwarden 1125 Posted February 15, 2011 btw. Community Issue Tracker supports now login via OpenID (e.g. Google is provider of it too) so it's now easy to login and upload stuff there than e.g. mediafire (nothing against mediafire they just fine but CIT is simpler :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
carlostex 38 Posted February 15, 2011 make sure you get down while playing the repro otherwise AI will get off the road because it's alerted. If it does not see enemy AI will go straight into the obstacle Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kremator 1065 Posted February 15, 2011 Still getting AI caught on the tail of a helicopter. They continue running but don't move anywhere! Can a little check be made to avoid this as it makes the AI look really dumb! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Can a little check be made to avoid this as it makes the AI look really dumb! That's one I hate as well, I also got half a group stuck behind a fence and they just kept running left and right but couldn't find the opening which was only a few meters away.

Collision detection bugs are horrible yeah. Arma 2 physics still need a lot of work and tuning. One thing i hate to see is grenades falling on the ground and then jumping like ping-pong balls.

PELHAM 10 Posted February 16, 2011 (edited) The 78188 patch has vastly improved my game performance! Better view distances (less fog?) and no more lost LOD when you turn from side to side. The game seems to run much smoother and better frame rates too. It's starting to behave like a real world! The changes made to the helicopter handling make them far more realistic to fly (you might need to practice landings as the sink rate is higher). Nice work BIS! If you have not tried this I would highly recommend it. Intel Core 2 E7300 ATI HD 6850 2GB RAM Edited February 16, 2011 by PELHAM Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fruity_rudy 16 Posted February 16, 2011 Ai gets stuck at tail rotor and they also run through walls. If you play vs. ai , that is really bad for the squad's chance to survive.. I have to ask again about the pp-effects with ambient occlusion. You introduced AtoC, thats a good thing even if i don't use AA because it kills my performance. But i really like PP-Effects. But on normal pp-setting,with ssao on low implemented, it's not the same like in vanilla arma 2 on high or very high... A slider or cfg-value would be very nice.

twisted 128 Posted February 18, 2011 one issue I'd like to mention is the 'jumpy' AI. overall AI is very improved, but when calling danger I notice AI tend to go prone (that's good) but then immediately get up (bad cause enemy AI and incoming fire) move forward a meter and then drop down again. it's like they want to run to get exactly into formation and it only happens just after the danger call. Solution: crawling or even crouching to move a little forward would be preferable and increase AI survivability while reducing the danger of them getting spotted. also talking of prone, it would be really good for AI who use the LMG or MG to strongly prefer prone/crouched while firing to control recoil. I notice lots of fire going over AI heads, which reduces the effectiveness of heavy fire. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tom1 10 Posted February 19, 2011 Hey BI, if I may make a suggestion. Zeus AI is great, but can bug the game to hell and is annoying on dedicated servers, especially when new players have to join and de-pbo to change all the settings to match the servers. Although zeus has many features, the two main features that should be included in next beta patch are this: 1. Enemy will tend to group before attacking. This is more common with higher skilled units. 2. AI will split up (when in squads) (squad or section: 8man squad = 2 fireteams, 12man squad = 3fireteams, 9man section= assault group 4 men, gun group 3 men and scout group 2 men.) and will try to maintain base of fire by supressing the enemy while the other groups attack. Higher skilled AI will seek to flank the enemy whereas lower skilled AI will tend to attack front on. The amount of changes, especially the recent ones, in the beta patches have been amazing, and with this change the game will become complete. With zeus AI playing with a team of ai against ai or groups of players and ai is just as interesting as PvP missions. This is realistic and will make arma2 a better game. Thanks in advanced.
